The greatest may be Jerry Rice who went to Mississippi Valley State. Other notable players are Steve McNair (Alcorn State), Donald Driver (Alcorn State), Kurt Warner (Northern Iowa), Adam Vinatieri (South Dakota State), Terrell Owens (University of Tennessee at Chattanooga), Michael Strahan (Texas Southern), Brian Westbrook (Villanova). Randy Moss and Chad Pennington played at Marshall when they were a 1-AA school.
University of Dayton's football team is Division 1aa
no, only football
Click on the 'Division 1AA Football' link below. City and state is listed as well as their conferences and football history.
Yes Savannah State plays Division 1 in Basketball and Division 1 FCS formerly known as Division 1AA in football.
I would assume that a division IA school can schedule as many 1AA teams as they want to fill their schedule. Assuming 7 or 8 conference games, that would leave room for 4 or 5 non-conference games. This being said, I do not know why any 1A school would be willing to schedule that many 1AA schools when they would draw decreased numbers in attendance and have to share the money with the smaller school, not to mention the lack of any exposure which is the reason the Division 1AA school is where it is.
Florida A&M, Jacksonville, and Bethune-Cookman.
No, Alaska does not have a Division 1A football school nor does it have a Division 1AA, now known as Division 1 Football Championship Subdivision, football school.
1aa schooll The Michigan State athletic programs are Division I. In football, they are Division I-FBS (formerly known as Division-1a, NOT Division I-aa). Their athletic conference is the Big Ten.
it all depends on the sport, like for example Lehigh University is Division 1 in every sport except for football which they are a Division 1AA team, so for football Drexel is division 1 but i am not sure about the other sports
No. Division 1A (aka, FBS) football teams have not played D-2 football teams in several decades; however, most Division 1A teams now host one game against a team from D-1AA (aka, FCS). Some 1A teams even host two 1AA teams in a season, such as last year when Florida State hosted Western Carolina and Chattanooga. Do not confuse Division 2 with Division 1AA. Keep in mind that D-1A football teams are simply D-1 for all sports other than football, while D-2 teams are D-2 for everything. For example, D-1A football schools like Villanova, Georgetown, and Davidson have basketball teams who compete for the D-1 national championship. Notre Dame has not played a team from D-1AA (FCS) since D-1AA came into existence in 1979. Appalachian State has no agreement whatsoever to play Notre Dame in football at any time in the future, but ASU does have contracts to play at East Carolina, Georgia, Virginia Tech, and Florida over the next several years.
